Rebirth: A Super Foodie and Her Cat Demon Husband

Chapter 279: Feeling Cold from the Inside Out

The three drove to a dilapidated old house.

This surprised Liu Yuanyuan a little. She didn't understand why Xiang Yushan appeared in such a place?

The entire neighborhood is filled with dilapidated five-story buildings made of red bricks, with crisscrossing electric wires everywhere. The road surface is a mixture of black and gray, and it is impossible to tell what it is paved with. There are also piles of debris in the corners.

It is even more dilapidated than the community where Daitong was first found. This should be an old community from the 80s.

Liu Yuanyuan thought she would enter an apartment building.

He didn't expect that they would walk through the entire living area and arrive at the last row of small bungalows.

The gray walls and gray floor make the torn cordons and sealing lines quite eye-catching.

The three of them came to the sealed house, and Qingyang took out the key and opened the door.

As soon as the door opened, Liu Yuanyuan felt a gray air rushing towards her.

Liu Yuanyuan quickly held her breath and waved her hand to drive away the anger, but found that Qin Yang and Xiao Wu began to put on gloves and shoe covers as if they were unaffected.

She was surprised and subconsciously looked down at Lieqing, and found that Lieqing was also squinting his eyes and covering his nose with his front paws.

So only Lie Qing and I could see and smell the gray air just now.

Liu Yuanyuan didn't worry about these things for the time being, but asked Qin Yang for a pair of gloves and shoe covers to put on her hands and feet.

Then he took two pairs of shoe covers and tied them on Lieqing's four paws.

Then he followed Qin Yang and Xiao Wu and walked into the house slowly.

The room was not big, probably only about 10 square meters, and it was simply furnished with a bed, a table and a clothes cabinet.

On the left side of the door stands an old-fashioned washbasin rack, on which stands an enameled washbasin with flowers.

At first glance, this room looks like a simple home from the 1980s or 1990s.

The green base paint and white putty are the main colors of the entire wall. The green paint part has become mottled, revealing the brick wall inside.

On the ground, a human shape was drawn with white tape.

Liu Yuanyuan didn't look at the man's appearance, but continued to look around.

After a while, Liu Yuanyuan looked at Qin Yang and Xiao Wu and said, "Captain Qin, Officer Xiao Wu, can I stay in this room alone for a while?

Don't worry, I won't touch anything in there."

Officer Xiao Wu frowned. He felt that this was inappropriate. After all, this was the crime scene. Putting a high school student in there would cause trouble if the scene was destroyed.

Before he could open his mouth to refuse, Qin Yang smiled and nodded and said, "Okay, you can take your time to look at it in the house. Xiao Wu and I will wait for you outside."

Xiao Wu looked at Qin Yang in shock. Before he could object, Qin Yao forcibly pulled him out of the house. Qin Yang even closed the door for Liu Yuanyuan.

After leaving the room, Xiao Wu asked Qin Yang in a puzzled voice, "Captain Qin, if you leave Liu Yuanyuan in there like this, aren't you afraid she'll mess up the scene? After all, she's a suspect."

Qin Yang knocked Xiao Wu's head in annoyance. "Are you stupid? As a police officer, don't you have any discernment? It's obvious that woman didn't mean to lead the clues and the crime to Liu Yuanyuan.

And didn't I just tell you at the police station? This little girl's current identity is not simple. Maybe we will have to work with her in the future.

Moreover, at such a young age, he already had a sense of confidentiality and was trying to ask questions, and even wanted to get some information from me.

But after all, I was still young and acted a little too deliberately, thinking that this would stop me from going back. After all, I am a police officer, so it is not that easy to fool me.

However, the information she was willing to reveal does explain why she was able to directly alert the higher-ups."

Xiao Wu continued to look puzzled: "Is that student-looking profiler really that good?"

"I don't know if he's powerful or not, I just know he's from the ministry."

After Qin Yang finished speaking, Xiao Wu also fell silent.

Inside, Liu Yuanyuan couldn't help but smile at Lie Qing's retelling. Open the door. The police weren't so easy to fool; her little tricks had already been seen through.

None of this is important now. The most important thing now is to quickly explore this room.

Liu Yuanyuan felt that the gray gas that suddenly rushed out just now was most likely the remaining death energy.

The deathly aura had already spread out when the door was opened just now. She felt that with her current strength, she might not be able to find any useful clues.

"Lie Qing, let's ignore what they say outside. Let's see what's left in here. You can't see, but you can smell for any clues. For example, the scent of the three brothers from the Rat Family or the scent of those big gray rats."

Lie Qing replied in a low voice: "Yuanyuan, I can't smell it. Now this room is filled with that strange smell I smelled before."

Lie Qing's words startled Liu Yuanyuan: "Strange smell, what strange smell?"

"It's the same smell that inexplicably appeared on you and then disappeared inexplicably the last time I went to your second brother's place.

It smelled strange, a bit like the smell of a dead animal rotting. Sticky and disgusting, but not smelly.

And this smell is quite strong in this room. I feel uncomfortable staying here.

It was chilly, and I felt the cold coming from the inside out."

Liu Yuanyuan's heart suddenly trembled. It seemed that there was still a lot of deathly aura in the room.

She was about to put her hand between her eyebrows to verify the information when she suddenly remembered she hadn't brought any food. She opened the door, pulled out 300 yuan from her pocket, handed it to Qin Yang, and said, "I only have 300 yuan here. See how much ordinary chocolate with cocoa butter you can buy with this 300 yuan. Buy me some for 100 yuan, and then use the remaining 200 yuan to buy me some buns."

Although Qin Yang was a little puzzled, he remembered that Liu Yuanyuan had trained a dog before, and felt that his ability should be related to eating. He didn't ask anything, took the money and turned around and left.

Xiao Wu was a little nervous, afraid that something might happen to Liu Yuanyuan, and also afraid that Liu Yuanyuan would ruin the scene.

Unexpectedly, this time Liu Yuanyuan walked out of the house directly, holding Lie Qing's hand, and closed the door. Xiao Wu smiled at him nervously, and said to Xiao Wu as if chatting, "Officer Xiao Wu, what's going on in this house? I've been in there for a while, and it feels a bit cold. I don't think this house is completely in the shade, so why is it so cold?"

Speaking of this, Xiao Wu immediately had a topic: "You think so too, right? I thought so too when I first came here, but the forensic doctor on the team told Captain Qin that it was winter now and there was nothing strange about it.

But I felt like it was even colder inside than outside. They said that was normal. It turns out I wasn't the only one who felt that way."
